I listen to music 3-6 hours a day and am the type of person who doesn't enjoy hearing the same song the same day or really the day after. Sites I've used for discovering new music were reddit and rateyourmusic.com.

Beyond that I do use Spotify song radios, but typically the song has to be far outside my standard genres to show me new music.

Whatdo others use to discover new music?

Musicmap.com lets you search for an artist, then graphically displays similar artists around them. Great way to find new artists similar to old ones you know you like.

Thanks for this suggestion. Saw it a couple days ago, and ended up making a little command line tool that outputs artists/groups similar to the one you give it using data from that site.
